Hi Jeff,

What this REALLY means (despite the misleading message) is that Verizon
won't relay mail for you. Sure it specifies that gmail.com isn't allowed
-- but really, the problem is that it doesn't trust YOU.  (If it did, it
wouldn't matter who the recipient is)

I have a feeling that if you sent a message from a 'verizon.net' e-mail
address, it'd allow you to go through to gmail.com -- but it doesn't
recognize dilgaardfoods.com, so assumes that you're a spammer.

This is something that does require some coordination with your ISP. They
have to agree that you can use their e-mail server to relay mail, and they
have to be set up to allow that relaying from the IP address of your
mailrouter -- in this case, the '400.

Sometimes ISPs will allow any mail as long as it comes from one of their
trusted IP addresses.  Othertimes, the domain in the 'FROM' e-mail address
has to match as well.
